they have to tell us whom to negotiate with. is it really from your experience, is it pretty clear that at the end of the day it is the pakistani government that has that kind of connection with the taliban? >> well, our efforts for peace, our cries for peace, our understanding of peace was that we were talking to the taliban. the assassination of president ra rabbani brought us in a shock to the recognition that we were actually talking to nobody. that those who came in the name of the peace process were asassins, were killers, were terrorists rather than negotiators. a man who came in the name of a messenger for peace turned out to be a suicide bomber. therefore, we have now clearly said that we will welcome a taliban address, but that address must have the clarity that this representative is authorized and is representing the taliban movement as we see it. the question of pakistan is important here because we all know that the taliban have their places there. they operate from there. and a meaningful peace process cannot go w

"we're not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term," he explained to the "washington post" recently. the republican party has an important and powerful economic message for america today. but to sell it, it needs to convince voters that it understands and appreciates america today. for more on this, you can read my column in this week's "time" magazine or on time.com. let's get started.
